Watercolor Makeup: Step 6 Now it's time to channel your inner Monet, because we're blending some serious colors. Start by adding a coral-orange blush to the top and bottom of the outer corner of your eye (Barnes used E.L.F. Aqua Beauty Blush & Bronzer, $6, in Bronzed Peach). Be sure to paint on the blush with a light and airy application. To illuminate the colorful "shadow", use your finger and lightly dab on some slightly shimmery liquid eye shadow in a rose gold hue. (He used E.L.F. Aqua Beauty Molten Liquid Eyeshadow, $4.) This will create a natural highlight on the eye, and make your eyes pop.

Then, mix a small amount of setting spray (we have your handy guide here) with a blue eye shadow (he used the E.L.F. Prism Eyeshadow Palette, $10, in Smoke), so it's a little more watery. Using an angled precision brush, paint the blue shadow into a straight line through the crease of your eye (do not follow the natural arch). Take your favorite (soft) green shadow, and paint the outer two-thirds of the bottom lash line -- being sure to blend, spreading it across the length of your eye. You should have zero harsh lines -- like shades of water.
